The flurry of activity at GOG.com continues, as the DRM-free game store is
updating their EULA and Privacy Policy following recent news of
layoffs and the end of
their Fair Price Package program. That latter news in part of the update,
which also describes a new functionality called GOG Direct to Account "that will
enable partnered platforms to activate, directly on your GOG.COM account,
content purchased via these selected third party platforms." Here are the
changes, which are set to roll out 30 days from now:

Why?
We want to let you know about few changes: (1) We’re adding a new functionality
- GOG Direct to Account that will enable partnered platforms to activate,
directly on your GOG.COM account, content purchased via these selected third
party platforms; (2) we’re concluding the Fair Price Package program that some
users were eligible for. For more details please see
here. (3) We’ve also refreshed our Voluntary Refund Policy now offering
refunds for GOG Wallet funds.

What?
We wanted to reflect all this in our policies. Plus we did some minor tidying up
of the documents. You can see the updated terms
here.

How?
We’re notifying you now by email, the updated versions are on the GOG.COM
website and the changes take effect 30 days from now (you'll find more
information about this in our User Agreement).

Do I need to do anything?
Nope.

What if I have questions?
Please contact us
here
and we’ll be happy to help.

No, I didn't but claiming a half-assed JBOD is a viable and valid backup strategy is, well, laughable.

It's a perfectly viable backup strategy in the context of this discussion. We're not talking about an enterprise backup solution in a corporate environment, we're talking backing up game installers from GOG FFS.
